FOX Sports Florida, Marlins host Young at Art Museum kids for 'Young Fans Week'
MIAMI -- FOX Sports is always looking for ways to engage young fans with the sport of baseball. This year, the FOX Sports Regional Networks have launched "Young Fans Week" -- with all of the networks' signature Fan Express buses helping to take over 1,000 kids to baseball games around the country.
The Miami Marlins and FOX Sports Florida are partnering to bring more than 50 local kids from Young At Art Museum (YAA) to the Marlins vs. Los Angeles Dodgers game on Friday, June 26, aboard the Marlins Fan Express for FOX's "Young Fans Week" and YAA's Charity Partner Day. Young At Art is a Marlins Charity Partner and members of their organization will participate in a variety of pregame and in-game events, including a ceremonial first pitch, as part of the evening's festivities. FOX Sports Florida will feature the Marlins Fan Express arrival at Marlins Park on the Marlins LIVE pregame show, as well as during the broadcast and on social media.
In their second year as a Marlins Charity Partner, YAA will develop an Artist Residency Program for students and teachers at Marlins Ayudan Partner Schools. The Artist Residency Program will integrate art and literacy through the student's excitement for baseball.
